The Questing Beast takes a fantastical approach to King Arthur, focusing on the themes, style, and color of the legend. The folk of Arthur’s world are all animals. In fantasy, a cat wizard can battle beside a mouse knight. A squirrel Princess can love a raccoon farmer. It is an expression of character, not of species.

This is a storytelling game. Telling a good tale is the focus of game-play. One of the ways this happens is through shared narration - you get to describe actions, events, and characters that are traditionally handled by a Game Master. The direction your story takes depends on your imagination alone.
